A substantial mid-terraced Victorian building currently arranged as six self-contained holiday flats (total c. 2,816 sq ft). The block sits in the heart of Blackpool’s holiday zone, within easy walking distance of major attractions, shops and the seafront. It is freehold and offered for sale by live stream auction with a guide price of £85,000+.
The property was converted to holiday accommodation around 1988 with architect designs and consents noted; it benefits from front and rear roof dormers and a full concrete basement. EPCs for the six units range C–D. The building requires full internal refurbishment throughout — a practical blank canvas for a buyer prepared to invest in upgrading mechanicals, finishes and insulation.
This location suits investors targeting short‑stay holiday lets or a refit for longer‑term lets, given proximity to town amenities and transport. Be aware the immediate area registers high crime levels and very high deprivation indices; purchasers should factor security and management costs into budgets.
Sale details important to bidders: the property will be sold at auction (live stream) on Tuesday 21 October 2025 at 12pm. There will be no access between exchange and completion. Prospective buyers must carry out their own due diligence before bidding.
